Orange County #ProtectDreamers Phone Bank Advocacy Event

Orange County #ProtectDreamers Phone Bank Advocacy Event

Please join Equality California and the LGBT Center Orange County, in partnership with Indivisible OC 48, Indivisible OC 46 (Lou Correa) and FWD.us, for an advocacy and phone bank event in support of passing a clean Dream Act!

We are looking for volunteers to help make calls! No experience is necessary. There are two shifts: 3-4:30pm & 4:30-6pm, but we would love to have you for any length of time. Pizza and beverages will be provided as well as materials to make posters and take pictures to show your support!

Participants should bring a cell phone and, if possible, an iPad or laptop. A headset or headphones to make calls would be useful but is not necessary.

Why Is This Event Important?

122 people a day are already losing their DACA protections, including DACAmented LGBTQ folks. Deportation may mean a death sentence to LGBTQ DACA recipients due to anti-LGBTQ sentiments and violence abroad. This piece of legislation cannot wait any longer. Congress must act by January 19!
